GOP Sets Brilliant Trap to Prove Dem Congresswoman Is Lying about Her Residency, Sends Gift Basket to Her Real Address

WATCH: Former President Obama Slams Politicians Lying

Well, this is awkward.

Georgia Democratic Rep. Lucy McBath has raised some eyebrows for not ACTUALLY living in Georgia.

Some members of the Republican party managed to troll her – and prove their theory about her questionable residence-  in the most epic way possible.

According to Fox News:

Georgia Democratic Rep. Lucy McBath was the target of some creative trolling by the Republican Party over her widely disputed claim that she actually lives in Georgia, after receiving and signing for a gift basket the GOP sent to her address — in Tennessee.

Well…that’s ONE way to prove it.

McBath, a racial justice activist who defeated Republican incumbent Karen Handel in November, has been dogged with questions since the election campaign on whether she actually lives in the state she now represents.

The state’s Cobb County Tax Commissioner’s Office, which refrained from issuing a decision during the election due to appeals, confirmed last month that McBath didn’t meet the requirements to call her Cobb County home her primary residence for the three tax years leading up to the election, meaning she was a Tennessee resident when she was elected to Congress.

To point out McBath’s deep Tennessean roots, the National Republican Congressional Committee sent a goody bag containing coffee infused with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, Memphis-style BBQ sauce and a hat of the Tennessee Volunteers to her Rockford, Tenn., home

Which is actually a KILLER basket – I’d love one of those myself. But it sends a clear message: she’s Tennessee all the way… and they know it.

Even better? She actually accepted and signed for the gift at her Tennessee address:

“We’ll say it again for the folks in the back: Lucy McBath is a resident of Tennessee, not Georgia. Instead of going to Georgia to meet and help her constituents, Lucy McBath jetted out of DC to her real home in Tennessee,” NRCC spokeswoman Camille Gallo said.

McBath’s office has not responded to Fox News’ repeated comment requests, though previous comments have made it clear this isn’t something she’s going, to be honest about.

The congresswoman disputed previous reports that she’s not a resident of Georgia, insisting that she only “briefly” lived in Tennessee or that she “recently” moved to Georgia.

Lol. Yeah. Looks like that was a pile of Tennessee crap.
